I woke up this morning to a hint of blue sky. A welcome sight after the smoky air of the last two days!
6:40 a.m. – northeast direction – sun glow mixed with haze in the lower atmosphere
east – a little more blue and a few clouds

Our friend, the ever-entertaining Crow, was very interested in what was in the water, so much so that he was willing to get his feet and beak quite wet.
In the same vicinity, a Ring-billed Gull idly took a stroll, no doubt looking for a morsel somewhere.
Also nearby, an oh so busy Merganser cruised back and forth in this narrow strip of water by the shore and frequently dipped below the surface.
Later, as I walked on the nature trail, I spied through some branches six Mallard Ducks in the middle of the river.
Does it looks as if they’re walking here? The river is at a low level right now, and they must have reached a gravelly ridge.
